2006 Volkswagen Touareg on 2040-cars
Pedricktown, New Jersey, United States
If you have any questions please email at: georgianngvvillacorta@ukmm.com . This is my second v-10 TDI. When i was blessed w 3 kids in a short period of time back in 2006 i made the mistake
of selling my 1st TDI and trying to pretend i could accept a minivan. The guy before me paid $85,000 sticker price.
There are only a couple hundred of these cars in existence in the U.S. and it is most definitely a collectors item.
The car has never been in an accident and over 28 years neither have I.
In addition to aforementioned options and maintenance last fall i had the drive shaft replaced which is a common
item to fail according to TDI forums around 75K miles. Also don't discount the 2 new batteries. Its an $1,900 job
to do w factory OEM batteries which this car has. The car needs nothing and has given me zero problems other than
the drive shaft breaking up. In Spring-14 i had new brakes and rotors all around done which was about 8K miles ago
rubber and pads are new all around.
This car is a monster and you wouldn't know it unless you had the guts to keep your foot to the floor. She pushes
620ft lb of torque as only a TDI does, as long as you can have the balls to keep your foot down. Unlike a gasoline
engine there are almost imperceptible shift points, the acceleration is unrelenting. And she will pull like that
with 2,5, or 10K lbs in tow just the same. For the record I only towed once for a friend and as i mentioned above
the hitch is factory and prewired.
Lets just say the AWD system mated to this twin turbo v-10 diesel is really impressive. The quality and
workmanship inside and out is very German. When the turbos spin up and you have the windows down you can hear the
whistle of these things spinning up anyone walking down the street knows this is not just another Toureg. I have
been stuck in 2-3' of snow up in NH or the Northeast on some fairly epic snowstorms the past two winters and this
truck at >6,000lbs is a tank in the snow. Holds the line and never ever gets stuck, not once. Even more
impressive to me is who she tracks at the limit in the ice and snow very assuring and easy to read. How well does
the AWD work? Watch a v-10 TDI pull a duramax monster truck down the road search toureg tdi truck pull on youtube.
The car is unmodified and as you can see by the pictures in showroom new condition. I am a pilot and well you can
expect this car has been treated like a private jet because it has. Why am i selling? Answer: I'm not sure
exactly yet. My kids have horses and well if i'm going to be towing a bunch or stinky horse people around its
probably not a great use of this high end luxury SUV.

Top Gear names BMW i8 Car of the Year, Corvette, Ferrari, Mercedes also win big
Fri, Dec 5 2014The lads at Top Gear have released their listing of the finest cars of the past year, handing the ultimate honor to BMW's revolutionary i8 plug-in-hybrid supercar. "The i8 is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers - and then some," the British mag wrote. The i8, though, was far from the only hybridized car to take victories. James May and Richard Hammond both highlighted hybrids as their personal cars of the year, with May saluting the Ferrari LaFerrari and the Hamster, unsurprisingly, heaping praise on the Porsche 918 Spyder. Jeremy Clarkson, meanwhile, opted to shock many by selecting not only an American car as his best of 2014, but giving the honor to of all things, a Corvette. Clarkson wasn't the only person to honor the USA's iconic sports car, with the new, 650-horsepower Z06 variant being named TG's Muscle Car of the Year. Other big winners include Mercedes-Benz, which TG honored for S-Class Coupe (Luxury Car of the Year), the new AMG GT (Sports Car of the Year) and the not-for-US C-Class Estate (Family Car of the Year). The 458 Italia Speciale A snagged a second win for Ferrari. The best of the rest include the Citroen C4 Cactus, Renault Twingo, Volkswagen Golf R, Lamborghini Huracan and Audi TT. Take a look below for the celebratory press blast from BMW. The BMW i8 wins Top Gear Car of the Year The BMW i8 has been named as Top Gear magazine's global Car of the Year 2014. The plug-in hybrid performance vehicle beat off some stiff competition from a host of other premium and luxury manufacturers to win the overall award. The editorial team of Top Gear commended the BMW i8 for its breadth of abilities. Its 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine combined with an electric motor gives searing acceleration and driver enjoyment but all wrapped in a package that takes BMW's EfficientDynamics philosophy to the extreme courtesy of CO2 emissions less than 49g/km and a 135mpg combined cycle figure. Charlie Turner, Editor in Chief at Top Gear magazine, said: "The BMW is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers – and then some. It's the kind of car we should celebrate, a beautiful vision of the future, delivered now.
Porsche 911 and Nissan 350Z get smoked by unlikely hero
Mon, Jun 1 2015So a Nissan 350Z Procharger and a current Porsche 911 GT3 drive onto the Autobahn together - stop me if you've heard this one before - and they decide to race. We're not sure how much power the Z is packing, but the stock model topped out at 306 horsepower on the last year of its run in 2009. And if that's a stock GT3 then it will be rocking something like 475 horsepower. So the Z and the GT3 give it a racing go, and just as one of them starts to pull away they're both overtaken by one of the most unlikely dark horses you could imagine. It's a really short video and we won't spoil the surprise, so check it out above.

UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Dec 2012There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
